Ocean Steamship Lines Losing Money.

TAHdre1 Carnegie IN Philadelphia Nmes.l
Capital In Great Britain, az In all other parts of
the world eXctp pit our own favored land, has had, Is
having and | believe is SIN to have a very hard
time of 1t indeed. In shipping, in which Britain
is supreme, more money has been lost during the
last few years than made. Some of my friends
who have interests In shipping. have shown me
statements which proves losses upon the opera
tions Of their vessels. The Cunarj Line shares,
which.cost Gi0, are now quoted at C9 10s., which
may be taken az a proof OF the prevailing depres-
sion, for which there are two reasons : too
many ships, to begins with, but especially
too many Of the old type. A revolution
Is gong forward in steamships. The new
triple expansion engines by winch the steam Ii
worked over three times instead Of once az for
merly, makes all the difference between a divi-
dend-paying concern and a losing one. The North
German LLOYD, all the steamers of which are of the
most recent type, is still profitable, and the White
Star Line, with better ships than those that existed
before they were built, and extremely good man
agement, Is aOle to declare II per cent. ships Of
the new type are now being built and old ships are
being changed and these will make a living. But
the great majority Of the present steamers will be
run of the sea. This transition period creates
great suffering, butt will all come right in the end
and Britain's supremacy upon the sea be az I'M
questioned in the future as 1t has been In the past.

ANOTHER ANARCHIsTIC REVOLT.
Observation-Disclosures Man Comes to Order In
Judge Lawrence,s Court.

Suuke LhWrenCe'b Court.
A big man, ragged of overcoat and shaggy
of beard, entered Part II. of the Supreme
Court, where Judge Lawrence was sitting.
His wild slouched hat was pulled we'll down
over his eyes, and it remained there while he
seated himself in court, unheeding the order
of the court officer: " Take off that hat"
The man wore a flaming red butterfly neck
ie;:besides his ferocious look. But that did
not deter Court Officer Barney Herman from
stepping briskly up to him and deftly jerking
the slouched hat off the shaggy head.
The man gave a scowl of rage, and Barney
led him forcibly to the door and elected
him.
Court Policeman Hen Howe was in the cor
ridor, and, attracted by the bowls of the
man., approached, prepared for q desperate
struggle. But the Anarchist " must have
heard something drop in Chicago last week,
for he became immediately docile, and as
sured the blue coat that he wood co NIT ("
him.
He WAS led out of the building and into the
street, where he emitted sundry other howls
for vengeance against the fiends of the law.
His exit was witnessed by about two hum
dred people, who had rushed out of court
rooms and offices, and were leaning over the
ratings on the upper floors of the rotunda
with pale and anxious faces, and they
breathed a sigh of relief as they saw the man
with the red tie disappear rapidly, but not
gracefully.

uncertainty. But I'll settle him. that l will.
Just let me see, now!
And the young girl nestled down into q
large armchair, and thought intently for
some half an hour. How much longer her
r~everie might have lasted; had not the quiet
which surrounded the old farm house been
disturbed by the sound of u horses feet adj
vancing up the avenue, it would be difficult
to determine.
AS it was, the crunching of the gravel at
tracted her attention, and with one bound
she reached a window which commanded a
view of the old-fashioned porch, and of the
drive before il.
There he is now, just as l suspected, come
to spend the afternoon with Sallie, the bash

of pupils, and even the crusty old schoolmis-

WHY HE LEFT THE BOX.
An Incident of n Ball Game Between the
Buffalo and Providence Teams.

The baseball convention Just ended at the
Fifth Avenue brought out many good stories
of the diamond, which were told in odd
corners while the League committee and the
Brotherhood representatives were enjoying
their conference behind closed doors. Among
the stories related was one about I" Jimmie"
Calvin, over which Harry Wright and q
group of League notables laughed heartily
and we'll.
The incident happened at Buffalo, where
the Providence team were pitted against the
home players. Calvin pitched for the Bisons
and the ball was hit -four times in its first
few starts towards the catcher. Four sue
cessive errors for the Buffalo inield followed
these four taps on the sphere and four Provi-
dence men got unearned bases.
Grayely, then, Jimmie" laid the ball
down in his pitchers box, beckoned to the
change pitcher to come in from right field,
and he himself started out.
Where are you going 2" roared the cap
tain.
"Out in the field"
And what for Who told You to ?"
well" replied the irate James, in grand
stand tones, "Td a had to go out if those
had been base-hits."

Gen. Cnfferel Wore n BIT of His Wife's
Wedding Dress as IA Tnlisman.

When a prisoner, decorated with the Legion Of
Honor, appears in the dock, the presiding Judge
orders him to remove the red ribbon. Gen. CAT
ferel has been saved this indignity. He was called
into the ONCE of the Governor of the goal, when
an usher, with all the delicacy and tact possible,
intimate his mission was to read the decree OF
President Grevy, ordering the name Of The General
to be struck off the role Of the Legion of Honor.
Cafrerel became like a statue; later the tears
welled in his eyes as he contemplated the rosette
showers OF shot and shell his company In the
Crimean war, TO the attack on the Malakoff.
Remove the decoration" said the prisoner.
Nc. Monsieur, +" replied the usher, "0Dlige me
by doing 3d." The ex-General heayed a heart
broken sigh, detached the r%osettle, opened his
pocketbook, unrolled a morsel Of white satin con-
tanning a lock of hts wife's hair and, placing both
together, put them into the book. II may not be
generally known that the piece of silk In question
was cut from his wife's dress on her wedding day
and which he has worn as a talisman for years,
through all the moving accidents of hood and field.

let the gypsy tell your fortunes, gentlefolks.n
A few moments hesitation and II low
spoken consultation-and then, while the
gypsy rested her shaking limbs on the steps,
Win Davis laughingly held out his hand for
her inspection, first, however, crossing her
own with silver, both for the lady and him
self"
But the gypsy demurred to this mode of
procedure the gentleman must not come
first, or bad fortune would come TO him his
sister" should precede him.. So Davis,
without in the least disclaiming the relation
ship, stepped aside, giving place to the half
timid maiden.
But again the fortune-teller objected.
Young sir, will We Just 90 further off ? II
spoils Il fortune TO have two to hear it,"
Will Davis, half laughing. half veXed, re-
tired as requested, and then the old woman,
without further delay, took Sallie's white
hand in her own, and slowly traced the line
upon it.
Now, Miss Sallie Bergh was not ut all in
clined to place implicit faith i'll any reVcla-
tions that might be made to her, even by the
most skilful tortune-teller the world contain
ed-nor, whatever were her fuilings, was
superstition included in the list. Neyerthe-
less, when the old gypsy's gloVed'fnger tray
elled slowly over her palm, the plaid bonnet
being gravely shaken the while, the young
lady repented of her rash compliance with
the weird creatures request,
Repented of IT, even though she learned
that she was loved by IA tall, dark young
man, who was at that moment not far dis
tant, but who needed encouragement from
her to declare his love"
The stars never lie, miss" concluded
the gypsy land they have written il in
our palm that yo will be married before
this time next year, and ye will have u good
husband, and be happy. Blessings ON ye,

Sallie now stepped within the house, and
Davis advanced TO the fortune-tel Her.

Miss Sallie asks for me, tell her that I have
gone to see that poor sick woman in the vii
lagee."
in the distance, Katie sprang to the door and
locked it, even adopting the precaution of
hanging an apron upon the knob, that no eye
might by any chance penetrate her secret by
means of the keyhole. Then she danced
unpacked trunk, drew therefrom several
articles which seemed strangely out of place
amidst the tasteful, expensive garments by
which they were surrounded.
One by one, Katie held them up before her,
a low musical laugh ripping from her lips as
she looked upon them. A strange collection,
in sooth, to form n part of q fashionable
young lady's wardrobe.
An old plaid calico bonnet, n long, loose
green-and-white plaid dress of the same ma
terial; an old pair of shoes, much larger than
necessary; u pair of blue spectacles, ragged
gloves. and, more incongruous, if possible,
than all these, a red cloak covered with
s~prawling yellow figures, such as would
cause the eyes of a genuine young gypsy
woman to sparkle with delight.
Ten minutes later, our mischievous friend
stood before the mirror, fully equipped in
this strange costume, save that her beautiful
curls yet dropped over the laughing face,
whose clear brunette was momentarily
becoming darker and redder under the
skilful manipulations of her busy fingers.

paused abruptly on the Threshold, and threw
up her hands in mock horror of the scene.
''Sallie Bergh! l do declare -
But Davis interrupted her.
"Sallie Davis, soon to be! Congratulate

And Katie did congratulate him, assuring
him of her belief that she wouId, by tho OK

Katie.
Anything she may choose to ask, SO that

A few moments later Katie left the room,
and directly afterwards IA slight rustic at the
door attracted the lovers attention.. Look
ing up they perceived, to their surprise, the
identical old gypsy woman standing III the
doorway. She made n deep courtesy, and,
hobbling across the floor, stood before them
in silence. Eor an instant only, however.
Then she extended one hand, while with the
other she cast of her un-bonnet, revealing
the laughing face of "madcap Katie"
Money, if you please, sir for the poor old
gypsy's village pensioners"
And Will Davis, so soon as he could sutfi-
GENTLY recover himself, assured the poor
old gypsy " that she should be " literally re-
warded " as soon ms he could gain access to
his private drawer, in his study. some two
miles away.
I'm trust you till then, said Katie, and
with a gleefui laugh she bounded away to lay
aside the fortune-teller's dress, which had
done such good service.
